Where appropriate the Council will conduct a full financial evaluation of the organisation. Where this is not possible or where the initial outcome suggests the Supplier may not have the required financial resources or stability, the Council will give the Supplier the opportunity to respond to the Council\u2019s concerns before reaching its final conclusion. This will consider the value of the Contract.\nSuppliers MUST ensure they have fully read and understood the Council\u2019s statement of requirements documented in PAN3501 Market Street Planters Specification in full to satisfy themselves they can comply with the requirements documented before completion, noting that should you not comply you will have the opportunity in this section to document where you do not comply for consideration by the Council.\nSuppliers must answer all statements and questions in section 3.2 Quality Section= 40% in the PAN3501 RfQ document, in full.\nResponses to Compliance Statements \u0026 Quality Questions will only be assessed on the basis of the statement for which the response is provided. Evaluators will not cross reference information from answers to other questions, regardless of its relevance or quality.\nFailure to respond to any question in this section will result in the Supplier receiving either a fail or a zero score for that question dependant on the criteria set out."
